>> Panel: 3:45pm – 5pm followed by networking 
>> Where: The Quantum Terminal  
>>  
>> About:  
>>  
>> Come join us in celebrating the achievements of women and non-binary people in STEM by editing their Wikipedia profiles! Did you know that only 19% of biographies on Wikipedia are about women? Given the gender imbalance already present in STEM, there is a great underrepresentation of Wikipedia profiles for women and non-binary people in STEM.  
>>   
>> This event is supported by Wikimedia, so there will be support present for all levels of knowledge of Wikipedia editing.  
>>  
>> In addition to learning about editing Wikipedia profiles, the event will feature a question panel of some inspiring people working in STEM fields. Get your chance to ask questions to:  
>>  
>> ·       Prof. Tanya Monro: Australia's Chief Defence Scientist  
>> ·       Erica Hediger: CEO and founder of The Creative Element  
>> ·       A/Prof. Alice Motion: Westpac Research Fellow and Deputy Director SydneyNano (Academic Development and External Engagement) 
>>  
>> Additionally, we have created a digital flyer to promote the event which you can find attached. If you would like any additional promotional materials, we are happy to provide them.  
>>  
>> Kind Regards,
